My beginner's tutorial shows how to do this, although for WiX 2.0. (Don't know if the same techniques will work in WiX 3.0.)
http://www.merlinia.com/mdt/WiXTutorial.msl See in particular the last section on this page: http://www.merlinia.com/mdt/WiXTutorial3.msl In part 5 (not on-line yet) I describe how to create an MST for each extra language, so what you distribute is (for example) an English MSI and one MST for each of German, French, etc. Then you need an MSI launcher program that let's the user pick his/her language. For English it launches the English MSI, for German it launches the English MSI with the German MST, etc. I intend to make my MSI launcher program available as freeware in a couple of weeks, when I'm done with the MSI editor program I'm working on.
